Tomb Raider: Evolution of the Red Dragon, Starting from the Ancient City of Jingjue

"I can't believe there's such a wonderful thing." Jiang Hua looked at the bright red bead in her hand with surprise and couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

He then returned to the cave and, facing the dense swarm of blood bats, Jiang Hua once again launched a slaughter, dealing with the blood bats alone, although he was slightly slower.

However, Jiang Hua's attacks were extremely sharp; with just a few sword strikes, he could sever the neck of a blood bat and kill it in one move.

Moreover, Jiang Hua also possesses a sword technique that is incredibly powerful when used; each strike creates a cloud of blood mist.

This sword technique is the very manual that Jiang Hua obtained in that mountain cave. The sword technique recorded in it is called "Nine Heavens Thunder Sword," which is an extremely fierce sword technique.

Its power is terrifying. Once mastered, a single sword strike can cleave a small mountain in two, demonstrating astonishing power.

"Shh!"

With a single swing of the sword, the head of a blood bat fell to the ground, splattering crimson blood that stained the entire ground red.

Jiang Hua's killing speed was very fast. In the blink of an eye, he had wiped out the entire group of blood bats. These blood bats were very weak and were no match for Jiang Hua.

A single sword strike would be enough to completely annihilate them, without even harming their skin. However, there were simply too many of these blood bats, and although Jiang Hua managed to kill a batch, he was still unable to do so.

But soon another group surged up, and the number of these blood bats far exceeded Jiang Hua's expectations.

"Damn it, if this keeps up, I'll be exhausted to death sooner or later."

Looking at the bloody scene on the ground, Jiang Hua couldn't help but curse. If this continued, his speed would eventually be worn down by the blood bats. At that time, even if he was a strong person, he probably wouldn't be able to hold out for long under such a blood bat siege, and he would die here sooner or later.

Jiang Hua was a pragmatic person. Since he might not be able to win and there was no need to fight head-on, he simply chose to retreat instead of confronting the enemy directly. This would save some energy, although it would require some effort.

Thinking of this, Jiang Hua immediately turned around and quickly disappeared into the distant jungle. Before long, he escaped from the swarm of blood bats.

"Huh, it's finally out."

Having broken free from the encirclement of blood bats, Jiang Hua breathed a sigh of relief. He glanced around at his surroundings and immediately relaxed again; everything was going according to plan.

The blood bats here aren't very strong; only two are relatively powerful, while the rest are easily defeated. He can easily take care of them.

"I wonder where this place is?"

Jiang Hua carefully observed the surrounding environment and began to ponder in his heart.

Thinking of Qin Feng and Chen Le, Jiang Hua decided to find a way to meet up with them so that he wouldn't have to act alone.

Jiang Hua's figure flashed, and he immediately flew forward at an extremely fast speed. In no time, he had already moved far away from the original location where the blood bats had gathered.

He sprinted at incredible speed, quickly arriving near Qin Feng and Chen Le. However, at that moment, a scream suddenly rang out.

Jiang Hua was shocked and quickly looked in the direction of the sound. He saw that Qin Feng and Chen Le were surrounded by a swarm of wasps, with more than thirty wasps in total.

It was frantically attacking them, and it seemed to want to devour them both.

This scene left Jiang Hua dumbfounded. The wasps could actually look like this; it was simply too bizarre, too unbelievable. However, this scene also made Jiang Hua even more vigilant. If these wasps were allowed to attack, it wouldn't be long before Qin Feng and Chen Le were torn to pieces.

"Damn it, I've had the worst luck today. I've run into so much trouble. It seems I can only rely on my own strength, otherwise I'll be torn to pieces by these wasps sooner or later," Jiang Hua said through gritted teeth.

"Hmph! No matter what, we can't let them go today!" Jiang Hua shouted coldly, his body suddenly rising higher, his feet stomping down, and a huge rebound force suddenly erupted.

His figure instantly rushed towards the thirty-odd hornet nests, and the long sword in his hand was instantly swung out, a sharp sword light shooting out in an instant.

"call out!"

The sharp sword energy transformed into a streak of lightning, slashing fiercely at the wasps.

"boom!"

Wherever the sword energy passed, the bodies of those wasps actually exploded under the impact of Jiang Hua's sharp sword energy, turning into puffs of blood mist that filled the air and covered half of the sky.

"Help!"

Qin Feng and Chen Le had not expected that Jiang Hua's sword energy would be so powerful and formidable, annihilating so many hornet nests with a single strike.

Jiang Hua didn't give Qin Feng and Chen Le much time to think. He moved swiftly and charged at them again.

Seeing Jiang Hua rushing over, Qin Feng immediately exclaimed with emotion, "I knew you would be here soon! Haha, you're really strong! You managed to kill so many wasps with just one sword strike!"

"These wasps are too weak; they can't withstand a single sword strike from me. You two, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and get rid of these wasps," Jiang Hua said, urging them immediately.

"Okay, just a moment, I'm coming." Qin Feng immediately replied to Jiang Hua's words, and then he hurriedly ran towards the swarm of wasps, with Chen Le following closely behind.

Both of them unleashed their weapons and charged towards the wasps.

Jiang Hua looked at the two of them and immediately activated his Yuan Qi, mobilizing all the Yuan Qi in his body and rapidly circulating the Gang Jin within his body, preparing to fight. After all, Qin Feng and Chen Le were both weaker than him, and he dared not be careless in the slightest.

The weapons in their hands gleamed with sharp blade light as they charged towards the wasps. At this moment, the two of them were like two sharp blades, unleashing their strongest attacks from the very first strike, leaving no room for retreat. Every sword strike was sure to draw blood.

This time, Jiang Hua also exerted all his strength, and the long sword in his hand was used to its limit. The sword light flashed, and wherever the sword light passed, the wasps were cut in two and fell from mid-air.

However, Jiang Hua did not stop attacking. He continued to urge the internal energy in his body and continuously poured it into the longsword, making the longsword's luster even more dazzling.

Now, the wasps were finally cornered by Jiang Hua and Qin Feng, and they scattered in all directions, hiding in the depths of the grass in the distance.

Seeing this, Qin Feng was overjoyed and quickly shouted to Jiang Hua, "Brother, let's go!"

"Okay." Jiang Hua nodded in agreement, and with a flicker, he disappeared from Qin Feng and Chen Le's sight.

Seeing Jiang Hua's figure disappear, Qin Feng and Chen Le didn't hesitate and gave chase. (End of Chapter)
